Andimi is heartrending and like other killings,<br \/>\nremains a sad commentary of the inability of a government to stand for<br \/>\nits citizens at very crucial moments.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP recalls that the Buhari-led Federal Government had failed to<br \/>\nprosecute the masterminds of the mass killings in Benue, Nasarawa,<br \/>\nBauchi, Taraba, Kogi, Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, Zamfara, Kaduna, Ekiti and<br \/>\nother parts of the country under the current administration.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Moreover, the body language, brazen acts of nepotism as well as<br \/>\ndivisive and incendiary comments by officials in the Buhari<br \/>\nadministration have continued to fuel disunity, acts of violence and<br \/>\ninsecurity in various parts of our nation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given the failure of the Buhari administration to guarantee the<br \/>\nessential of government which is the security of lives and property,<br \/>\nNigerians across board, as homes, communities, groups, towns, even<br \/>\nstates and regions are now organizing their respective security<br \/>\napparatuses such as Amotekun in the South West and several others in<br \/>\nvarious parts of the country to guarantee their safety.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The situation would not have degenerated to this level if the Buhari<br \/>\nPresidency is living up to its billing on security, including listening<br \/>\nto wise counsel by well-meaning Nigerians to rejig his security high<br \/>\ncommand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP holds that it is clear that the security of lives and property<br \/>\nin our nation has gone beyond what the insensitive, divisive and<br \/>\nincompetent Buhari administration can guarantee.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Indeed, our nation has come to a stage where any genuine assistance<br \/>\nthat can be provided by states and even communities in securing lives<br \/>\nand property should be integrated. The situation requires the<br \/>\ncollaboration of all, including the federating states.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Furthermore, the PDP remains committed to all efforts toward national<br \/>\ncohesion, security, peace, stability of our nation and all federating<br \/>\nunits in a manner that promotes good governance and national cohesion at<br \/>\nall times.&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div
